Program overview
The MSc Management with Project Management with Professional Development Planning (PDP) at BPP University is an extensive 18-month, full-time postgraduate program. It combines the strategic oversight of a management degree with the technical discipline of project management, fortified by a dedicated 6-month employability module.
This program is specifically designed for graduates who aim to become "Project Leaders" capable of managing complex initiatives in a global context. The core advantage of this 18-month version over the standard 12-month course is the Professional Development Planning (PDP) component, which is engineered to bridge the gap between academic theory and the professional workplace.
Key features of the program include:
Extended Duration (18 Months):
Months 1-12: You complete the full academic curriculum, mastering both general management strategies and specialized project management methodologies (such as Agile and Waterfall concepts).
Months 13-18 (PDP Phase): You focus entirely on career readiness. This module includes intensive coaching on leadership, interview techniques, and often involves opportunities for internships, voluntary work, or employer-led projects.
CMI Accreditation: The program is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). Upon successful completion, you may be eligible for a CMI Diploma in Management and Leadership, providing a dual qualification that is highly valued by employers.
Risk & Quality Focus: You will study specialized modules like "Project Risk and Quality Management," learning to identify pitfalls and ensure deliverables meet strict quality standards.
Digital Leadership: The curriculum integrates "Leading Through Digital Disruption," ensuring you are equipped to manage projects that involve new technologies or digital transformation.
Post-Study Work Ready: The extended length and focus on UK workplace culture make this an excellent choice for international students aiming to utilize the Graduate Route (Post-Study Work) visa.
